Lots of TV shows returned in 2018, and some were more popular than others.

Shows like “Grey’s Anatomy”, “Brooklyn 99” and “Riverdale” continued to be fan favourites.

It’s well-known that 2018 was another great year for television, with a slew of wonderful new shows and some great reboots. Still, even with all of the options out there, most people chose to stay dedicated to their returning favourite shows, whether they were tuning in week after week for new episodes, or binge watching the entire season as soon as it aired.

A seemingly endless amount of television shows returned with new episodes in 2018, but some definitely proved to be more popular than others. TV Time compiled a list of the most watched returning TV shows of 2018, and it includes some that were easy to predict, but others that are a little more surprising.

Take a look at the list below to see if your favourite made the cut — or even to get ideas on something you can start binge watching now:

“New Girl” rounded out the last with the show’s last season.

FOX/’New Girl’People tuned in for the last season.

The CW/Scott Everett White‘Jane the Virgin’ is nearing the end of its run.

This year, “Jane The Virgin” aired the second-to-last season of the show, which is about a woman named Jane who gets accidentally artificially inseminated even though she’s a virgin who wanted to wait until marriage to have sex. All of the show’s twists and turns are written in the style of a classic telenovela.

“One Piece” made the list even with 18 seasons under its belt.

It can be hard to find viewers who stay dedicated through 18 seasons, but “One Piece” has done that. The series, which is based on a Japanese manga series, is on Hulu.

“Suits” was also popular with viewers.

Shane Mahood/USA Network‘Suits’ continued to be popular through Meghan Markle’s transition to a Duchess.

Could Meghan Markle’s transformation into British royalty have anything to do with the popularity of “Suits” this year? The Duchess of Sussex was one of the stars before leaving the acting world behind, and she must have had some sort of influence- although, of course, the drama is also a hit on its own.

“Orange Is The New Black” was a highly anticipated show for 2018.

NetflixFans couldn’t wait to get more of ‘OITNB.’

When Netflix brought back “Orange Is The New Black” for another season in 2018, viewers clearly couldn’t wait to tune in. The latest season saw the Litchfield inmates split up into two separate groups and brought into new prisons, and also introduced everyone to some new characters as well.

“Supernatural” made the list even after 14 seasons.

The CW‘Supernatural’ is still a hit after 14 seasons.

“How To Get Away With Murder” is the first of two Shonda Rhimes shows on the list.

Kelsey McNeal/ABCViewers are big fans of Shonda Rhimes’ show ‘How To Get Away With Murder.’

“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” became super popular after almost ending.

FOX‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ fans had a scare earlier this year.

In May of 2018, Fox announced they would be cancelling “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” which elicited such outrage from fans that, only one day later, NBC decided to start airing the show on their network. So, it’s not shocking that the newest season of the buddy cop comedy show beginning in 2018 was a huge hit.

As controversial as the show’s first season may have been, the success of the show’s second season is proof that “13 Reasons Why” is still a big hit. The second season focused on the details and struggles that went into Hannah’s suicide in season one.

“Riverdale” came in at number two for the show’s third season.
